SEALED KLM House #17 BOLS Holland - Unopened w/ Gin - Pre-1995 Dutch Made
KLM Blue Delft House #17 – RARE Unopened 1990s "Made in Holland" Edition
Price: $88.00
The Collector’s Choice:
This is not a standard empty miniature. This is a perfectly preserved, unopened example of KLM House #17, featuring the original Bols Royal Distilleries gin.
Investment-Grade Condition:
Fully Sealed: Features the original wax seal and cork. Unlike most vintage houses, this one remains unopened.
Original Contents: Still contains its original Dutch Genever (gin). The weight of the house confirms the liquid is present—a rarity for a 30-year-old ceramic piece.
Authentic Dutch Manufacture: The base is explicitly marked "Made for KLM by BOLS Royal Distilleries Holland." This confirms it was produced before production moved to Singapore in 1995, making it a true Dutch-made collectible.
Pristine Exterior: Hand-painted Delft Blue porcelain with no chips, cracks, or crazing. The signature yellow chimney is intact and vibrant.
Historical Significance:
House #17 is a detailed miniature of the historic Gouda Orphanage (Spieringstraat 1-3) in Gouda, Netherlands. Built in the mid-17th century, it is famous for its unique double-arched gable architecture, which is beautifully captured in this ceramic replica.
